Resolving Civil Disputes, 2nd Edition
Author: Michael Legg
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780409358292
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Efficient, effective and ethical resolution of disputes is central to civil society. However, resolution processes are subject to significant practical and policy issues. The revised and updated second edition of Resolving Civil Disputes identifies and explores these challenges. Structured to address the roles that litigation and various other forms of dispute resolution play in resolving civil disputes in the modern era, this book fosters an understanding of how to evaluate and select the most appropriate resolution technique for a civil dispute, through processes such as negotiation, mediation, arbitration and litigation. The book explains the distinctive and vital role of litigation, while questioning whether a broader view of justice may be taken and how the courts and alternative dispute resolution may interact. The mechanics of litigation and mediation are examined through insights into the key steps of each process. The utility of dispute resolution techniques to deliver access to justice is discussed with attention placed on those members of society who suffer economic or social disadvantage. The text explores key responses to a lack of access to justice such as legal aid, pro bono, class actions and litigation funding. The text also examines the impact of technology on lawyers, litigation and alternative dispute resolution and addresses the development and practice of transnational litigation. The clear and authoritative analysis has been contributed by leading experts from the judiciary, academia, legal and dispute resolution practice. This unique text provides invaluable guidance for practitioners, policy-makers, students, researchers and anyone interested in dispute resolution techniques. Features * Considers roles of litigation and other ADR methods as elements in the dispute resolution process * Discusses key practice and policy questions relevant to both practitioners and policy-makers * Wide-ranging topics include access to justice, class actions and litigation funding * Explores the impact of technology on legal practice * Authoritative and reliable content * Contributions from eminent thought leaders Related Titles * Boulle, Mediation and Conciliation in Australia: Principles Process Practice, 2023 * Field, Australian Dispute Resolution, 2022 * Lethbridge et al, Civil Litigation: Strategy and Practice, 2023

Online Family Dispute Resolution
Author: Elisabeth Wilson-Evered
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030646459
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
This book brings together the expertise of two authors involved in initiating the development of Online Family Dispute Resolution (OFDR), while also examining the unique Australian system. The family arena generally comprises property or child-related disputes arising between parents, whether married or not, and whether the parties have lived together or not. A special feature of Australia’s OFDR system is that it deals with children’s issues rather than focusing on property distribution. The book first discusses how technological innovations have transformed dispute resolution services to families. It explores the need for OFDR and how such systems can potentially be implemented. In turn, the coverage shifts to screening tools used prior to a Family Dispute Resolution session to ensure that online systems are appropriate for the case under dispute and the people involved. Readers will then learn about the necessary training required – for administrators, practitioners and clients alike - for OFDR to be successful. In addition, the book offers a comprehensive evaluation of the system and reflects on the lessons learned to date. In closing, it suggests ways in which OFDR could be further developed and applied to family disputes around the world.

Zines's the High Court and the Constitution
Author: James Stephen Stellios
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781760020248
Category : Constitutional law
Languages : en
Pages : 723
Book Description
It has been seven years since the last edition of Professor Zines's classic book, The High Court and the Constitution. In that time the High Court has handed down a range of important decisions transforming, extending and developing existing constitutional law principles. The 6th edition of the book, by Dr James Stellios, contains analysis and critique of the High Court's jurisprudence over that period. Changes have been made to all chapters to update the existing law. However, the most significant updates relate to:The reformulation of the Commonwealth's executive power to contract and spend following the High Court's decisions in Pape and the two Williams cases;The High Court's continuing development of Chapter III principles, particularly its renewed interest in the Kable limitation on State Parliaments;The uncertainties appearing in recent High Court cases on the implied freedom of political communication;The High Court's application of s 92 to national markets in the internet-based new economy.________________________________________________From the Launch in Sydney..."It is a very great pleasure to launch the 6th edition of The High Court and the Constitution and to congratulate James Stellios on his success in maintaining, and perhaps enhancing, the very high quality of Leslie Zines' previous editions. ... it remains for me to state expressly what has been implied in every sentence of this speech. This is a great book. It is truly an Australian classic which is of value to both sophisticated lawyers, students and those who are interested in the Australian Constitution and the High Court and how each of them works."

Encounters with Constitutional Interpretation and Legal Education
Author: James Stellios
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781760021627
Category : Constitutional law
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
What do constitutional interpretation and legal education have in common?For one thing, they share the same tension between theory and practice, between form and substance, between process and outcomes, between constancy and change, and between local and comparative perspectives. Each also has a substratum of fundamental underlying values that demand, but do not always receive, clear articulation.For another thing, they have both been the subject of illuminating examination by Michael Coper over the course of a long and distinguished career.An extraordinary group of authors, including Justice Stephen Gageler, the Hon Michael Kirby and Sir Anthony Mason, come together in this book to celebrate Coper's achievement, and take his various contributions as a jumping off point for their own further scholarly insights.From the gripping story of the revolution that swept away the old law on section 92 of the Constitution, to the endemic conflict in the judicial process between legalism and realism, to the never-ending controversy about the Dismissal, to perceiving the world and organising legal knowledge in new ways through biography and oral history, to the role of educators in shaping the views and values of newcomers to this knowledge, this book contains over a dozen sparkling essays by some of Australia's most renowned and respected lawyers, as well as a substantial reflective commentary by Michael Coper himself.An intellectual feast!
